Mine came and I built most of it last night. I'm not sure why I paid $68 for 3 pieces of foam and $5 worth of CF, but it's pretty cool and I look forward to hiking and flying with it. I decided it was small enough to easily strap to the outside of my backpack so I glued on the wing. Just by chance I have a stack of neodymium magnets the perfect size but I liked a more secure attachment.

I was considering taping the LE to protect against damage from landing in tall grass. What exactly is that extreme tape? It looks like you're reinforcing the nose and fin as well. Sounds like a good idea. Does the tape paint well?

I also found a 300mah nicd (the one I have) isn't the same size as a 300mah nimh so I'll have to get a battery.
